South Africa: Overnight floods kill dozens in Durban and environs

At least 59 people are thought to have died in South Africa’s eastern coastal province of KwaZulu-Natal due to unusually heavy rainfall, according to media reports, while officials were still trying to assess the extent of the damage.
Dozens more are missing across the port city of Durban, which is expecting more extreme weather.
There are fears that numerous people have been injured while damage to property was extensive in the overnight rains. The military has been put on alert.
